Google, known for its creativity in the technology space, will be competing directly as a response to ChatGPT through Bard to be channeled to different encounters.

Due to the growth of ChatGPT, Google failed in its earnings expectations in 2022 as the ad revenue dropped rapidly by 3.6%.
2. Stronger channel of information
The technology company referred to Bard as a “conversational AI service” which comprises the depth of the world’s information with the power, intelligence.
It said the uniqueness of its large language models would also help provide answers to questions.

3. Created for developers
The Chief Executive Officer of Google, Sundar Pichai, said the company would begin plans to bring in individual developers, creators, and enterprises to create innovative applications with its Generative language API.
Bard is expected to be powered by LaMDA as it adds other models too.
Google designs such as Utility AI, Image generation, Music generation will shortly be made available for developers.
4. Ability to process complex information
Bard will be integrated with Google Chrome to process complex information and multiple perspectives into easy-to-digest formats, so you can quickly understand the big picture and learn more from the web
The Google CEO said, “Soon, you’ll see AI-powered features in Search that process complex information and multiple perspectives into easy-to-digest formats, so you can quickly understand the big picture and learn more from the web: whether that’s seeking out additional perspectives, like blogs from people who play both piano and guitar, or going deeper on a related topic, like steps to get started as a beginner.”
5. Doorway to internet
AI has experienced tremedous amounts of usage which has resulted in several outages since the start of ChatGPT.
However, Pichai disclosed Bard will be handling a smaller and lightweight kind of the Language Model for Dialogue Applications.
He said, “We’ll combine external feedback with our internal testing to ensure Bard’s responses meet a high bar for quality, safety, and groundedness in real-world information. We’re excited about this phase of testing to help us continue to learn and improve Bard’s quality and speed.”
